To me it makes total sense from an industrial design standpoint to put the jack on the bottom. Knowing Apple this was intended . . . or at least was a happy result of reingineering the interior of the device.]]>Dec 19th 2005 12:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/09/12/ipod-nano-review-roundup/http://www.engadget.com/2005/09/12/ipod-nano-review-roundup/
#2: The hold button wouldn't work on the side because it would be much more prone to being changed when the ipod went in/out of your pocket.]]>Dec 19th 2005 12:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/09/12/ipod-nano-review-roundup/http://www.engadget.com/2005/09/12/ipod-nano-review-roundup/Dec 19th 2005 12:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/09/12/ipod-nano-review-roundup/http://www.engadget.com/2005/09/12/ipod-nano-review-roundup/Dec 19th 2005 12:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/09/12/ipod-nano-review-roundup/http://www.engadget.com/2005/09/12/ipod-nano-review-roundup/
As it was posted above, one of the few things I wished I could change about my old iPod was putting the jack at the bottom. Makes sense as explained in #8 and #10. I am holding out because I always do. Nothing against early adopters, but its silly to buy the first one when you know in about 6 months they will release another one for the same price with more storage and features.]]>Dec 19th 2005 12:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/09/12/ipod-nano-review-roundup/http://www.engadget.com/2005/09/12/ipod-nano-review-roundup/
I like the stop watch feature on the nano though. This would come in handy at the gym!! The color screen is definitely a nice touch, but I'm still undecided on the earbud jack placement. I guess I'd have to hold one and test it out.]]>Dec 19th 2005 12:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/09/12/ipod-nano-review-roundup/http://www.engadget.com/2005/09/12/ipod-nano-review-roundup/]]>Dec 19th 2005 12:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/09/12/ipod-nano-review-roundup/http://www.engadget.com/2005/09/12/ipod-nano-review-roundup/All of those reviews are quite positive, 4.5 out of 5... going to sell like hotcakes.

My Apple stock on which I already made 50% profit is going to go up. haha.]]>Dec 19th 2005 12:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/09/12/ipod-nano-review-roundup/http://www.engadget.com/2005/09/12/ipod-nano-review-roundup/
There is little to critsize and the thigs to critisize (no firewire, doesnt work with photo connector and wont display photos on tv) are all obvious and understandable compromises that I am willing to give up as was apple in designing it.

I cant wait for mine to arrive]]>Dec 19th 2005 12:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/09/12/ipod-nano-review-roundup/http://www.engadget.com/2005/09/12/ipod-nano-review-roundup/ stereo jack to charge it and listen to it at the same time. Granted, I could blow the extra cash and get one of the docking/speaker systems, but I already have a sound system that sounds better than any of the ones out there. :P

I'm curious as to how accessories will deal with that problem, too, wouldn't things like the iTrip intefere with your ability to plug it into your car adapter? I'm sure that someone will resolve that issue in the next few weeks though.

I think the nano's pretty cool, even if the battery life sucks.

This is quite an amusing review... finally an iPod killer.

It's so small and almost got it but the 4 gig limit keeps me thinking about getting the 20 gig or not. Right now i think i'm going to wait and see what happens.]]>Dec 19th 2005 12:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/09/12/ipod-nano-review-roundup/http://www.engadget.com/2005/09/12/ipod-nano-review-roundup/
who wanto use the old big itrip on this beauty anyway??]]>Dec 19th 2005 12:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/09/12/ipod-nano-review-roundup/http://www.engadget.com/2005/09/12/ipod-nano-review-roundup/It's called a personal preference. When I have an ipod in my pocket, for whatever reason, it irks me if its not right side up. Im sure ill get over it, but it still counts as a negative in my book.]]>Dec 19th 2005 12:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/09/12/ipod-nano-review-roundup/http://www.engadget.com/2005/09/12/ipod-nano-review-roundup/Dec 19th 2005 12:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/09/12/ipod-nano-review-roundup/http://www.engadget.com/2005/09/12/ipod-nano-review-roundup/Dec 22nd 2005 8:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/09/12/ipod-nano-review-roundup/http://www.engadget.com/2005/09/12/ipod-nano-review-roundup/
I also don't understand why nobody likes the headphone jack on the bottom of the iPod. I find it extremely useful. You don't have to turn the iPod all the way around when it's upside down in your pocket. When it's on the lanyard, all you have to do is pick it up and look at it. No wires getting in your way or getting twisted around. It's perfect. I've yet to find a scratch on my white nano. The case that comes with it is actually very good at keeping it safe. The earphones that came with the iPod... well, I can't say that I've had a better pair. (And these actually STAY in my ears!!)



Pros:

Perfect weight/size

GREAT sound

Click wheel

Color Screen

+ basically everything
